During my educational experience, I worked as an intern with Family Alternatives, Inc. in Lumberton, NC, completing 200 hours of counseling experience. After graduating, I gained employment with Family Alternatives, Inc. in June 2006, as a case manager and therapist. In July 2007, I changed courses and began work in the public school setting. I have been employed as a Professional School Counselor in NC Public Schools for 13 years. I am also a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of NC (License # 14606).
Before we begin our sessions together, I would like you to understand my personal view of counseling and how I practice it. The following information should help you gain a better grasp of what to expect from your counseling sessions.
I view counseling as a relatively short-term, collaborative effort, although I will continue sessions as long as we deem necessary. I believe that in order to reap any benefits from our time together, you must be committed and active. As your counselor, I can only support, educate, and encourage you. You will have to put forth effort in homework assignments, including special exercises or journal writing, for example. Some changes will come more quickly than others, which may require more effort.
I subscribe primarily to “Person-Centered Therapy” developed by Dr. Carl Rogers and “Reality Therapy” formulated by Dr. William Glasser. Relying heavily on the methods and techniques form these two theories, I will help you feel more comfortable with the idea of self-exploration. This will enable you to meet your needs in a more effective manner by understanding the consequences of the choices you make.
Together, we will identify your goals, the time commitment involved in reaching these goals, the risks and benefits of counseling, and the approaches used in reaching your goals. We will also develop a plan that will be evaluated periodically. If the progress towards these goals is less than satisfactory, we will revise our treatment plan.
Although our sessions may be both emotionally and psychologically intimate, it is important for you to understand that the relationship between us is not personal, but strictly professional. In order for you to best address your concerns, it is better for our relationship to reach no further than the confines of our counseling sessions. Even though you may learn a lot about me through my own disclosure, you need to remain aware that you are experiencing me only in my professional role.

Patricia Price holds a Master of Arts degree in Service Agency Counseling from the University of North Carolina at Pembroke, awarded in 2005. She earned licensure in school counseling from the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction in 2008 (license number 1096979) and attained National Board Certification in 2015 as a teacher in School Counseling for the Early Childhood Through Young Adulthood certificate (certificate number 02771048). She is also licensed to practice clinical mental health counseling in North Carolina – license number 14606.
During her training, she completed a 200-hour counseling internship with Family Alternatives, Inc. in Lumberton, North Carolina. After graduating, she joined Family Alternatives, Inc. in June 2006 as a case manager and therapist. In July 2007 she transitioned to the public school setting and has since served as a Professional School Counselor in North Carolina public schools for 13 years. Overall, she brings 18 years of experience to her clinical work.
Patricia’s clinical focus includes areas such as stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, anger management, self-esteem, family conflict, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, parenting challenges, career difficulties, depression, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. She approaches counseling as a collaborative, primarily short-term process while remaining open to continuing sessions as needed. Her style emphasizes active client participation – she supports, educates, and encourages, and often assigns exercises or journal writing to reinforce progress. Some changes require more time and effort than others, and Patricia works with clients to set realistic goals, outline the time commitment involved, clarify potential risks and benefits, and choose appropriate approaches. Treatment plans are reviewed periodically and adjusted if progress falls short of expectations.
Grounded in Person-Centered Therapy developed by Dr. Carl Rogers and Reality Therapy formulated by Dr. William Glasser, her practice encourages self-exploration and decision-making that helps clients meet their needs more effectively by understanding the consequences of their choices. While sessions can involve emotional and psychological intimacy, Patricia maintains a strictly professional relationship; any personal disclosure is presented within her professional role and the therapeutic boundaries remain within the counseling setting.
For many common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and life transitions – online therapy has been found to be as effective as traditional in-person care. It offers a practical option for addressing everyday mental health challenges.
A key benefit of remote therapy is flexibility. Clients can choose the format that best fits their needs and schedule, whether that is a video session, a phone call, live chat, or in-app messaging. This variety makes it easier to maintain continuity of care without disrupting work, family, or travel plans.
Licensed professionals deliver online therapy, and if the fit is not ideal a client can switch therapists to find a better match. For many people, remote therapy makes it simpler to access consistent, professional support while balancing the demands of daily life.
